Britain’s fastest man Zharnel Hughes has predicted that Netflix’s “spicy” new track and field series will have a similar impact on the sport as Drive to Survive did for Formula One.
Last year Hughes broke the British 100m and 200m records and won world championship bronze in Budapest but he remains far from a household name. However he believes that the Netflix cameras, which captured the drama and simmering tensions when behind the scenes with the world’s top sprinters, will showcase the sport in a more exciting light.
